New Yorker - 9/10 by Richard BrodyConceals a complex world view beneath its desolate and blood-soaked landscapes.
User Review - 10/10 by Michael SAn awesome "B-Western" featuring this immortal exchange of dialogue: "How old are you, Billy?" "I don't know. Young, mostly."
User Review - 10/10 by William HOne of the best I have ever seen! Richard Boone plays the bad guy as good as anyone, Henry Silva as his ruthless partner, and cool as a fan Randolph Scott make this much more interesting than the usual suspects. Well written, funny, exciting and not lame! Check it out....
User Review - 10/10 by Jerome WThe duel between Randolph Scott, the hero, and Richard Boone, the bad guy, is made all the more enjoyable by Boone's grudging respect for the man he knows is his most lethal adversary. This is another example of Randolph Scott and Budd Boetticher at the pinnacle of their respective careers.
User Review - 10/10 by andrew mRandolph Scott can even make taking it in the ass from Cary Grant look manly.
User Review - 10/10 by Sandy Cthere were none better in western roles than randolph scott.
User Review - 10/10 by Zoran SAnother fantastic Boetticher/ Scott Western. This is especially impressive given how compacted it is and yet manages to be richly characterized.
User Review - 10/10 by Ricardo OFriday, February 5, 2010 (1957) The Tall T ADULT WESTERN The way that I saw this film at the time was that I was completely oblivious about the storyline and that it was another Budd Boetticher and Randolph Scott team up and at the same time I was in the mood to watch another Western film. All I'm going to say is that it's an ADULT WESTERN with tension!!! The reason I say ADULT is because this is not like any 'shoot em up' John Wayne film but deals more on a serious adult theme which kids won't like unless they're sophisicated for a somewhat subtle mature storyline that has alot of tension. This movie deals with the nerves and the psyche on a relatable situation that in my opinion one of the most realistic westerns ever made with a superficial ending. One of the biggest things most Westerns lack of are the credibility, it's always so fantasy- like and extremely glamourous and instead of The Tall T just showing the situation and then 'it' to be resolved so quickly, it takes it's time into resolving itself as the film progresses which is why this film is a masterpiece!!! 4/4

User Review - 10/10 by Michael KA brilliant, entertaining, intelligent psychological western featuring superb performances from the great Randolph Scott, Maureen O'Sullivan and the ever-villainous Richard Boone.
